    I have a 2020 19 with 2 flooded batteries and 1 solar panel. It seems that the batteries are not holding a charge very well any more.

    Solar/lithium power dilemma: not enough bang for our bucks!

    Hi all, I’m hoping you wise folks can advise me on a vexing solar/power related question. I have a 2012 17B which we modified last year because we could no longer deal with our teeny bed. Essentially, we took out the fridge and extended the bed using a lagun table. It works GREAT and we’re...

    21NE tiny black tank

    So, the 13 gallon black tank in our 21NE extends from under the toilet part way into the under bench storage area. I don’t know why ETI couldn’t have made it extend further and have a larger tank. I’ve looked at a few posts showing addition of auxiliary tanks but the look like bigger projects...

    Outside lights

    I really don’t like the standard RV patio lights. They just shine in my eyes. I’m thinking about replacing the existing one with a linear down light. Alternatively I could use a few individual lights along the side and run wires inside the cabinets. Any input/concerns appreciated. Thanks

    Electrical cable

    My 2011 15 A had a 30 ft electrical cable that you shoved back into the trailer and it coiled up inside. With it parked in my yard I had it plugged in and someone yanked the 30 ft out and hacked it off and stole it so be careful.

    Finding and opening hidden spaces

    There's all kinds of empty spaces hidden in any trailer build. Escape is no different. Where have you found these hidden spaces in the 21C and what did you do to create more storage or better liability? Thank you for sharing!

    Where are they?

    We just returned from a 76 day journey of the northwest US. We spent the majority of out time in Washington and Oregon. We were totally surprised to see so few Escape trailers. We did see some, 4 or 5, but saw probably twice that number of Casitas. If you happen to attend any fiberglass...

    Can you get any lazier than this?

    I'm trying out for the laziest Escape owner award... We just got back from the beach (with sand everywhere), so rather than the incredibly challenging task of cleaning 40 square feet of flooring, I decided to set our robot vacuum to work. It mopped and vacuumed the "kitchen", "dining room"...

    How accurate is trailer size in recreation.gov

    Been awhile since I've been on here, been enjoying a LOT of camping though :laugh: My question is how accurate is recreation.gov about listing the allowable length for a travel trailer? Can you squeak an extra few feet over the listed length allowed for a campsite? And I'm not asking about...
